I'm Yolanda did this once years ago I lost 115 pounds right before I turned 50. Gained 50 of them back recently.. Now that I am 54 and going through menopause it is really rough keeping the wait off. I exercise for 20 to 30 minutes every morning, my goal is always to do 20 or 30 additional minutes of exercise after work but by the time I get home I'm dog tired. I need energy!

    Hi Yolanda -

    First of all - great job on your weight loss and kudos for catching it before you regained it all back.

    For the workout issue - I have to get my workouts in either before work or at lunch or else I won't do them. Maybe try doing a tougher workout before work (so you can shower) and then a walk at lunch or break (if possible)? That may help.

    I've found out that the more I work out, the more energy I feel (didn't feel that way at first) so stick with it! It'll be worth it!!

    Good luck!!
